List of European Ryder Cup golfers
This is a complete list of golfers who have played against the United States in the Ryder Cup for the following teams:
159 golfers have been in the final teams. In addition the list below includes Miguel Ángel Martín who qualified for the European 1997 Ryder Cup team but withdrew due to injury. Seven of the golfers in the final teams were never chosen to play in any matches so that only 152 of these golfers have actually played in the Ryder Cup.
In 1973 the official title of the British Team had been changed from "Great Britain" to "Great Britain and Ireland", but this was simply a change of name to reflect the fact that golfers from the Republic of Ireland had been playing in the Great Britain Ryder Cup team since 1953 , while Northern Irish players had competed since 1947 . In addition, two golfers from Jersey and one from Guernsey (both British Crown Dependencies ) played on the Great Britain team in the 1920s.

In this table the appearances includes players who were in the final team but were not selected for any matches. It does not include those who were initially selected or who qualified but were later replaced. Thus Mitchell (1927), Jolly (1931), Olazábal (1995) and Martín (1997) are excluded.
Record European point winners
European country records
This table excludes José María Olazábal (in 1995 ) and Miguel Ángel Martín (in 1997 ) who withdrew due to injury and were replaced in the team. Martín never played in a Ryder Cup team. Nick Faldo played in 11 Ryder Cups but made his debut in 1977 for Great Britain and Ireland.
In the 22 contests from 1979 to 2023 there have been 165 appearances by players from Great Britain and Ireland (an average of 7.5) and 99 by those from Continental Europe (an average of 4.5).
